"Canadians Present A Major Threat If They Realize They Won’t Own A Home" says Canadian police force

well fucking DUH > Canada is facing a number of destabilizing forces — like climate change, disinformation, and young adults never owning a home. That’s the take from an internal RCMP report called the Whole-Of-Government Five-Year Trends For Canada. The report is a “scanning exercise” on evolving risks for law enforcement to monitor. It puts the fact that many people under 35 will never own a home, on par with disinformation and climate change. ## Police Worry Canada May Be Destabilized If Young People Realize They Won’t Own A Home > One of the concerns law enforcement is warning about is the impact of eroding economic conditions. Especially when it comes to young adults. > > “The coming period of recession will also accelerate the decline in living standards that the younger generations have already witnessed compared to earlier generations,” reads the report. > > Canada may have seen a pandemic economic boom, but it was largely related to rapidly appreciating real estate. Unfortunately, that doesn’t apply to young adults who saw housing get further out of reach. > > “For example, many Canadians under 35 are unlikely to ever buy a place to live. The fallout from this decline in living standards will be exacerbated by the difference between the extremes of wealth, which is greater now in developed countries than it has been at any time in several generations,” warns the RCMP. > > Wealth disparity is bad enough, but what happens when that wealth disparity is driven by shelter disparity? It’s a problem not typically seen in advanced economies at scale. The writing is really on the wall now. And yet, the working class sleeps...

THE BOOT SLURPING WILL CONTINUE UNTIL AD BLOCKERS ARE DISABLED

old.reddit.com

I know reddit is low hanging fruit, but I just can't with these dweebs. > Something has changed. Using an adblocker goes against the YouTube ToC, so Google has started to detect them. You need to disable Adblock for YouTube, and it should go back to normal. > > fuck google for doing this. > > Well, Google has every right to do so. It has to pay the content creators for their work, so people need to pay either (as you and I do) through Premium or by having advertisements. When people use an ad-blocker to watch YouTube, they are freeriding on the creators' work, which is disrespectful to say the least.  why yes, I talk about people who use ad blocker to not have their consciousness invaded by advertisements using "welfare queen" language. how did you know? > > They don't pay creators on YouTube as much as they used to. > > I'm not surprised. People are blocking ads all over the place.  > YouTube has recently been cracking down on ad-blockers, because they deprive content creators of their rightful fees. Recent changes have caused ad-blockers to misbehave. > Or just, you know, pay for the content? It's called YouTube Premium. People don't complain about Netflix or Amazon Prime charging money. > > Anyway, it's your decision what you choose to do. *I choose to pay.*

Governor Abbott declares an “invasion”. Supersedes any federal statutes.

gov.texas.gov

> Governor Abbott Issues Statement On Texas’ Constitutional Right To Self-Defense > > January 24, 2024 | Austin, Texas | Press Release > Governor Greg Abbott today issued a statement on Texas’ constitutional right to defend and protect itself as President Joe Biden continues to attack Texas and refuse to perform his duties to secure the border. > "The Executive Branch of the United States has a constitutional duty to enforce federal laws protecting States, including immigration laws on the books right now," reads the statement. "President Biden has instructed his agencies to ignore federal statutes that mandate the detention of illegal immigrants. The failure of the Biden Administration to fulfill the duties imposed by Article IV, § 4 has triggered Article I, § 10, Clause 3, which reserves to this State the right of self-defense. For these reasons, I have already declared an invasion under Article I, § 10, Clause 3 to invoke Texas’s constitutional authority to defend and protect itself. That authority is the supreme law of the land and supersedes any federal statutes to the contrary."

we are doomed

https://twitter.com/ahandvanish/status/1502034441010569221 There's a big reality gap right now between people who are actively staying on top of COVID research & those who just trust the current guidelines. There's no judgment here, but I'd like to try to communicate the worldview of the former based on what we know about COVID now: The US has chosen to prioritize the economy despite strong, countless studies that COVID harms many people, even those without #LongCovid or hospitalization. COVID predominantly affects the *vascular* system (the blood vessels), causing harm to the blood cells & blood flow; this has a downstream impact on nerves, immune system, & multiple organs, including the brain. Vaccination prevents against death, but not against long term damage. Your first COVID infection can leave you with pre-existing conditions that will make you more vulnerable to subsequent infections. #LongCovid If COVID circulates forever, you will be more vulnerable with every year that goes by. There is no permanent protection from this, neither from vaccination not infection. Having some immunity does not prevent damage on subsequent infections. COVID infections can impact fertility in all genders, making conceiving harder and causing more miscarriages. Even having *non-hospitalized* COVID increases the risk of 18 severe vascular conditions, including strokes, heart failure, clots, embolisms. COVID can cause reactivated EBV, which is associated with lymphomas, multiple sclerosis, and other health issues. COVID can cause severe cognitive issues and brain changes in people who had never been hospitalized. There is no evidence that this resolves; many have had this for 2 years. Past SARS resulted in the same. These are just a few examples. There are thousands. Harm is not rare. There is no real evidence that COVID will evolve to become less dangerous over time, but there is evidence to suggest it will become more dangerous especially given the amount of spread and ability to create new variants. Behind the scenes, all of this is acknowledged. Researchers, including at NIH, have acknowledged a likely wave of early onset dementia. The WHO & CDC meet with patients regularly & acknowledge the severity & future consequences. But there is no public awareness that just having COVID in itself is a huge health risk for your future, even from a "mild" infection, even if you feel recovered. For those of us who are up to date on COVID impacts, including breakthroughs & reinfections, it genuinely looks like we are going to kill or disable an enormous % of our population in the next 10 years, & our leaders have decided to intentionally keep people in the dark. And spoiler alert - the disability from COVID is *already* hurting the economy, and this will get worse every year too. https://www.ft.com/content/33444f29-bab1-4655-85b5-c0b1f68d9653 ([paywall](https://archive.ph/qcO5H))
